And you may not know that Lady Duff Gordon made dressmaking hisâ€" tory by staging the first mannequin parade. The first male visitor to a dress parade, she recalls, was Mr. Asâ€" quith Gater Lord Oxford‘, who acâ€" companied his wife, Margot Asquith, anrd "sat calmly through the show, though I do not think he gave much atteniion to the models." | Newspaper Rivalry "‘Never minc, my dear, you have done very well, he said.

Mary hesitated only a second before replying, "Yes." She had lost the complete trust she had once given to everyone,. Dirk had planted the germ of distrust thoroughly; hereafter, she would be frank, with reservations, even with Bowen. *"What kind of blowâ€"out is that toâ€" morrow night?" Bowen asked, with wrinkled brow. "What is a fete, anyâ€" how? Fancy dress?" Mary told him as coherertly as she could, and that she had an engageâ€" ment to meet him at the fete the folâ€" lowing night. $ "Do the others know who De Loma is?" Bowen asked.

The Laurel Tearoom waus a small, stufly affair with a row of highâ€" backed benches forming booths along one side. In the first of these, peerâ€" ing out worriedly, she saw him. Bowen looked at his wrist watch and raised eloquent eyes to the ceiling. Bruce retired into glum s.lence. The iron of jealousy apparently had enterâ€" ed into his soul and to soothe it he must make his inamorata demonstrate her devotion immediately by giving in to his whim. M In the elevator, Bruce made some lowâ€"voiced plea which Mary did not catch, but it was refused with further protestations of illness. Bruce paid the check.

"The sooner the better," Bowen advised. *"The Ambassador won‘t put him up rent free much longer. They‘re wise to his kind. He was probably counting on that pony of his to recoup his finances.
